About

Welcome From
the Principal

Melton South Primary School (MSPS) was established in 1923 and is situated in the Shire of Melton approximately 35km west of Melbourne. The school caters for a well-established residential neighbourhood as well as new housing estates.

The school offers a range of well-resourced specialist subjects including French, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics), Art and Physical Education. ICT is utilised to enhance teaching and learning programs with a school funded netbook program for Prep to Year 6.

We are strongly committed to creating and supporting a school wide culture and environment that recognises and enhances student well-being. Embedded in the school culture at MSPS is that everyone has the right to be safe, respected and to learn. School Wide Positive Behaviour (SWPBS) and the Respectful Relationships initiative continue to be priorities supporting consistency in teaching appropriate behaviour school wide.

Parents are very involved at Melton South in many ways and it is their dedicated support and assistance in many areas that enable us to provide the quality of education that we offer.

Mission & Vision

At MSPS we believe all children can achieve success given the opportunity, support, and inspiration through a strong performance and development culture. We aim to provide your child with skills in literacy and numeracy and to provide the opportunities for your child to develop interests as a happy and responsible member of society.

Our buildings and grounds are a source of great pride and improvement.

Our Vision is to create a safe and respectful environment that fosters a growth mindset in all stakeholders to achieve excellence. We administer, collate, and analyse student data to inform teaching and learning. We use High Impact Teaching Strategies including setting goals, structured lessons, explicit teaching, collaborative learning, and multiple exposures with an ongoing focus on differentiated teaching. We constantly strive to adopt the best practices by keeping informed of new initiatives based on educational theory and research.

We are strongly committed to creating and supporting a school-wide culture and environment that recognises and enhances student well-being.

Our Mission is that Melton South Primary School is a progressive community that leads the way. Together we create motivated, respectful learners who achieve excellence.
